    • Verse 1
    Cigarette 
    smoke 
    dances 

    back 
    in 
    the 
    window, 

    And 
    I 
    can 
    see 
    the 
    haze 

    on 
    its 
    own 
    light 

    I'm con
    juring 
    ghosts 

    on a forty 
    hour 
    ride 
    home, 

    And 
    they 
    keep 
    asking 
    me 
    what I'm 

    doing 
    with 
    my 
    life. 

    Verse 2
    While my 
    cousins 
    go 
    to 
    bed 

    with 
    their 
    wives. 

    I'm feel
    ing 
    like 
    I've fallen 
    behind. 

    Verse 3
    Well, the 
    highway 
    won 

    I'm 
    listening 
    to 
    traffic 

    reports 
    one 
    on 
    one 

    Coming 
    quietly 
    undone. 

    I was 
    born 
    to run 

    Away 
    from 
    anything 
    good. 

    An 
    es
    cape 
    artist's 
    son 

    Sun- 
    drenched 
    pavement 
    in 
    my 
    blood 

    Verse 4
    The 
    first 
    thing 
    that 
    I 
    do 
    when 
    I walk 
    in 
    is 
    find 

    a 
    way 
    out 
    for 
    when shit 
    gets 
    bad 
    and 

    Verse 5
    I've 
    been 
    looking 
    for 

    Tears 
    in 
    the screen 
    door 
    (tears in the 

    screen door). 

    I've 
    been 
    waiting 
    for 

    An
    other 
    disaster (an
    other disaster). 

    Well 
    I'm 
    Verse 6


    still 
    afraid 

    Like 
    a kid 
    in 
    the sixties 

    Staring 
    at 
    the sky 

    Waiting 
    for 
    the bomb 
    to fall. 

    And 
    it's 
    all 
    a lie 

    What 
    they say 
    about 
    stability. 

    It scares 
    me 
    sometimes 

    The emptiness 
    I see 
    in 
    my 
    eyes. 

    Verse 7
    And 
    all 
    the kid
    s 
    names 
    I've ever 

    liked 
    recited 
    tragedy. 

    Well, 
    I don't want 
    my 
    children 
    growing 

    up 
    to 
    be 
    anything 
    like 
    me. 

    Verse 8
    I've 
    been 
    looking 
    for 

    Tears 
    in 
    the screen 
    door 

    (tears in the 
    screen 
    door). 

    I've 
    been 
    waiting 
    for 

    An
    other 
    disaster (an
    other disaster). 

    And 
    I 
    Verse 9
    was 
    kinda 

    hoping 
    you'd say. 

    I 
    was 
    kinda 
    hoping 
    you'd stay. 

    Verse 10
    I 
    keep a 
    flashlight 

    And 
    a small 
    knife 

    In the 
    corner 
    of 
    my 
    bed 
    stand. 

    I keep 
    a flashlight 

    And 
    the train 
    times 

    But 
    you wouldn't 
    understand. 

    How could 
    you 
    understand? 

    Jesus 
    Verse 11
    Christ. 
    I'm 
    26. 

    All 
    the 
    people 
    I've 
    graduated 
    with, 

    All 
    have 
    kids, 

    All 
    have 
    wives, 

    All 
    have 
    people 
    who 
    care 
    if 
    they 

    come 
    home 
    at 
    night. 

    Verse 12
    Well, 
    Jesus 
    Christ, 
    did I 
    fuck 
    up? 

    Verse 13
    I've 
    been 
    looking 
    for 

    Tears 
    in 
    the screen 
    door 
    (tears in 

    the 
    screen 
    door). 

    I've 
    been 
    waiting 
    for 

    An
    other 
    disaster (another
    disaster).

      Best Tuning App Ever

      MaddProfessor

      "

      I’ve downloaded many tuning apps before and this one is by far the best. Easy to use, super user-friendly, and they have a bunch of fun different chords and songs to help you learn new music. I highly recommend.

      Well-Designed App

      I mostly use this for tuning my guitar, which this app makes ridiculously easy. It also has a large selection of songs to play along to and it helps show you which chords to play as well how to make the shapes with your fingers.

      Got me back into playing

      Tuliketsune

      "

      I got this app to tune an old guitar, and noticed it has a feature that autoscrolls as I play chords to famous songs. For some reason, this was a lot more motivating for me than any other way of practicing guitar. Now I'm actually practicing and remembering the names of chords 🙂

      Not only is it a tuner (best app tuner I've used personally) but it also has a metronome, games, chords, and a plethora of instruments to choose from and it's SUPER easy to navigate. I love it! Thanks for making an awesome app. From one musician to another, THANKS!!!

      This is the best guitar tuner ever.

      It tunes your guitar accurately so you can get the best sound. I like all the other little games as well because they teach you how to play different chords and you can learn to identify the chords by listening to them and it is all offline.
